    Hello Sam, great tips!
    Also, have you figured out a way to record a multi-track recording when you are also streaming?
    OBS keeps mixing the tracks on the output video.
    Thank you in advance!

    • @irresistible7756
      @irresistible7756 3 года назад +13

      go to settings > output > recording > audio track: select 2,3
      then go to the audio mixer > advanced audio properties:
      1. For Desktop Audio choose tracks 1,2
      2. For your Mic choose tracks 1,3
      now you'll have separate audio tracks.

    Bitrate has a lot to do with the resolution you record on, I usually record using a bitrate of 200mbps at 1440p, there is definitely a difference with banding when you compare master files from lower bitrates, although once upload it to YT you loose a lot of it (but then again, I'm a high quality freak). As for the music, I think its the most important as long as it makes sense. Great video and great tips! Subscribed!

    • @SamWoodhallForCreators
      @SamWoodhallForCreators  3 года назад +1

      Thank you man. I think I should've increase the bitrate recommendation - but I know not everyone has a great PC to record and play games at the same time. Quality is also subjective, so I guess as long as the video looks good, it does the job. I appreciate the comments also, and thank you for subscribing!

    • @SamWoodhallForCreators
      @SamWoodhallForCreators  3 года назад +1

      After a quick look at your channel, I would recommend doing a few things.
      1. Look at how you title and thumbnail your videos. I explain this a lot on the channel, but sometimes a title and thumbnail matter more than the content itself. Weird and backwards I know, but that's a key thing to get more clicks.
      2. On that basis, look at reaching more of a search based focused. Not everyone will know who you are on RUclips, and not many people are looking for your specific content. Focus maybe on doing more search based content. Like for example your last video "*COLD WAR SEASON 2 BATTLE PASS*" could easily have been turned into something more searchable. Open up an incognito window and search for that same phrase, and see what kind of thumbnails, titles and such show up.
      3. Consistency, you're not posting all that regularly. Weeks to months apart for videos. We all need time to have breaks for sure, but if you want to keep on top of maintaining viewership, you need to be more consistent.
      4. Finally, look at what content you make and what value you want to provide. What would make people want to watch your channel specifically? My recent video covers this a lot. Maybe you can teach people how to get better at Call of Duty, or any other game you play.
      If you're looking to make a career on social media, value is the only product you should focus on giving. What skills, abilities and passions do you have that can be turned into content? What can you give someone, even if it's just one person, that will make them feel valued. Whether it's reading their comments, responding like this, taking time to make sure they understand the medium, the technique, the way to get better.
      Self awareness of what you want to do, and what is and what isn't working is critical. Treat this like a business, if you want to make it something you can turn into a career.
      Final note I will add - this is a career. You're not looking for virality, you're looking for sustainability. This will take time and patience. Be in it for the long run.
      I hope this helped, have an amazing day my guy.

      @@SamWoodhallForCreators Everyone can go above. Whether if it's worth it to be streaming at 8000 kbps without transcoding, that is a different discussion, but anyone can do it. Hell, I even streamed at 25000 kbps with the VOD containing that bitrate and it was crystal clear, but after 8000 it will get really inconsistent.
